New Delhi. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has hit back at Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's allegations against the government of criminally ruining Tata. The Finance Minister said that as the leader of the opposition, I advise you to stop politicizing every issue. He said that it is simply not acceptable to label business and legal matters as 'criminal' without thinking. You have repeatedly criticized Indian industry and the successes of our entrepreneurs. Are you now trying to instigate our industrialists to join you and spread distrust and hatred?
Nirmala said that for decades, your party Congress suppressed the spirit of Indian entrepreneurs through 'License-Quota Raj' and pushed crores of Indians into poverty. On the other hand, our government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi values Indian industry as an 'employment generator' and 'booster of economic growth'. Our policies are designed to enable enterprise, support industry and promote investment.
The Finance Minister said, it is the equal responsibility of political parties, leaders, governments and institutions to support our industries, strengthen farmers and secure the future of the youth. Therefore, it is more important to engage constructively rather than make baseless allegations to serve our narrow political objectives. The Constitution of India guarantees justice to all its citizens and our Honorable Courts are responsible for upholding it. History is witness to how you, your party Congress and the Prime Ministers associated with your party have insulted the judiciary in a very bad manner, so Rahul ji, stop seeing ghosts everywhere.
Rahul Gandhi's tweet-
Tata is being criminally ruined, and no businessman has the courage to say a word. How long will you remain silent? Is it until they completely take over you? Indian businesses are not Modi and Shah's toys. You lack courage. We don't have it. We will ensure justice for these crimes.
